Podcasts about custom publishing

First up this week, host Sarah Crespi talks to Jon Chu, a presidential young professor in international affairs at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, about how people around the world define democracy. Does democracy mean elections, freedom of the press, social mobility, or something else? Chu's team found there was common ground across six countries. In many places with backsliding democracies, leaders may be tempted to change the definition of democracy to their own ends—this study suggests the people they rule won't be fooled.   Next, when staying at home meant choosing between chemistry and basketball, Lena Svanholm sought an opportunity in the U.S. to pursue both. She joins producer Kevin McLean to discuss her next steps in balancing dual careers in science and professional sports.   In a sponsored segment from the Science/AAAS Custom Publishing Office, Erika Berg, director and senior editor of Custom Publishing, interviews Michal Elovitz about gaps in women's health research. This segment is sponsored by the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.   This week's episode was produced with help from Podigy.   About the Science Podcast   Authors: Sarah Crespi; Kevin McLean; Lena E.

Hello, and welcome to another episode of the podcast. I've talked a lot about traditional and self-publishing on the podcast. I've noticed recently that some beautiful cookbooks aren't traditional or self-published but hybrid or custom-published. Today, on the podcast, I have an interview with Georgie Hockett. Georgie is the Marketing Director at Flashpoint Books. Georgie joined Girl Friday Productions (the parent company) in 2018 as a marketing professional with over 20 years of experience in media and magazines. At Flashpoint, Georgie's passion for helping authors achieve their unique version of success makes her a client favorite, and her support of her talented marketing strategists makes her beloved by her team as well. Today on the podcast, Georgie and I talk about the definitions of hybrid and custom publishing, the ideal client for a hybrid book, and the mindset of the ideal client for Flashpoint. We also dive into a hybrid publisher's services, how to know if hybrid publishing is for you, and Georgie's advice to a cookbook writer considering hybrid or custom publishing.  Things We Mention In This Episode: Flashpoint Books Lil' Luna's So Easy So Yummy by Kristyn Merkley The Kitchen Commune by Chay Wike  

What does it mean that we have so many more seamounts than previously thought, and finding REM sleep in seals   First up on the show this week: so many seamounts. Staff News Writer Paul Voosen joins host Sarah Crespi to discuss a study that mapped about 17,000 never-before-seen underwater volcanoes. They talk about how these new submarine landforms will influence conservation efforts and our understanding of ocean circulation.    Next up, how do mammals that spend 90% of their time in the water, get any sleep? Jessica Kendall-Bar, the Schmidt AI in Science postdoctoral fellow at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego, is here to talk about her work exploring the sleep of elephant seals by capturing their brain waves as they dive deep to slumber.   Finally, in a sponsored segment from Science/AAAS Custom Publishing Office, Jackie Oberst, assistant editor for the Custom Publishing office, interviews Friedman Brain Institute Director Eric Nestler and Director of Drug Discovery Paul Kenny, two experts on addiction from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

There are massive telescopes that look far out into the cosmos, giant particle accelerators looking for ever tinier signals, gargantuan gravitational wave detectors that span kilometers of Earth—what about soil science? Where's the big science project on deep soil? It's coming soon. Staff Writer Erik Stokstad talks with host Sarah Crespi about plans for a new subsoil observatory to take us beyond topsoil. Wood is in some ways an ideal building material. You can grow it out of the ground. It's not very heavy. It's strong. But materials like metal and plastic have one up on wood in terms of flexibility. Plastic and metal can be melted and molded into complicated shapes. Could wood ever do this? Liangbing Hu, a professor in the department of materials science and engineering and director of the Center for Materials Innovation at the University of Maryland, College Park, talked with Sarah about making moldable wood in a new way. In a sponsored segment from Science/AAAS Custom Publishing Office, Sean Sanders, director and senior editor for the Custom Publishing office, interviews Michael Brehm, associate professor at UMass Chan Medical School Diabetes Center of Excellence, about how he is using humanized mouse models to study ways to modulate the body's immune system as a pathway to treating type 1 diabetes.

They go into great detail about Sean’s passive investing strategy and the mistakes he made in the past.

Watch the video podcast here. A Bit About Joe Joe Pulizzi is a content marketing evangelist, speaker, author and founder of Content Marketing Institute which is the leading content marketing educational resource for enterprise level brands. He writes one of the most influential content marketing blogs in the world, and also writes for Entrepreneur.com and LinkedIn. Tune in at the 5-minute mark to find out more about Joe’s background. Stepping Away from Working with "the Man" Joe spent time cutting his teeth in the marketing industry at Penton Media, the largest independent business publisher in North America. While there, he ran the content marketing group and spent a lot of time working with customers who didn’t want to go the traditional advertising route for their businesses and so he decided to go out on his own. Joe put together a 40-page strategic business plan by researching and approaching mentors who were business owners.  However, once he started his company, he never looked at it again! What he learned from this: Write down your goals and review them almost every day What are your business goals, family goals and spiritual goals? Check that you are on target Ask yourself "is what I am going to do today going to help accomplish these goals on time?" The act of writing it down and making it real is important. As far as a business plan goes, perhaps that isn’t as important! Own Your Category and Be the Leading Expert Dan Kennedy once said, “If you want to own a category, the best thing you can do is to invent that category”, and that is exactly what Joe did. The term "Content Marketing" used to be called "Custom Publishing" or "Custom Media" when Joe started out in 2000, but nobody was interested or liked those titles. He knew he had to use another term especially to sell the idea to marketers who needed to know that the term was actually relevant to them. Joe isn’t sure if he coined the term “Content Marketing” but he definitely was the one who got the term out there. His advice is that if there is some ambiguity around the thing that you’re doing, it's completely ok to say “this is what we are calling it now”. Hubspot did the same thing with the term “inbound marketing”. Differentiate Another important piece of advice he has is to make sure you are differentiating yourself by telling a different story than everyone else. If you are in an industry with a lot of other competitors (hello WordPress consultants!), how are you different from the next guy? What’s your story? A lot of people find their story by niching down to a smaller audience. It’s counterintuitive, but you’ll build authority much faster that way. The goal is to build an audience, they will then trust you which will increase sales but it won’t happen immediately, it takes time. The Business Model and Sponsorship 50% of the Content Marketing Institute's focus is actually the event that they run "Content Marketing World" which they hold all over the world. The webinars, consulting and training are the things that lead to the events. With their events, 70% of their revenue comes from registration and 30% from sponsorship. In order for events to work you need the ecosystem of the leaners and the tech providers to be there. You are helping the sponsors too, as you have built the audience and you have the ability to put that company in front of that audience. Creating Valuable Content Every bit of content you put out needs to be valuable. If you’re selling something in the blog, it isn’t going to be successful. You need to own your own audience by having an email list. If you build your audience on social media, you don’t own that, and it can be taken away from you at any stage if they make changes. Email subscription is at the top of the hierarchy here. Wise Words on Finding Your Niche Find the sweet spot between some skill area that you have and your passion point. Content Tilt. You have to move that area in such a way that it positions you to be telling a different story. This way you won’t get lost within the millions of others who are blogging about it. Go smaller. Market to the little audience and then you can still take on other work if it comes your way. Build the base audience and then monetise the base. Position yourself as the leading expert in some informational niche and build an audience. Be the leading expert in something. Go small. Market to a small audience, build your base, then you can charge whatever you want. It takes about 18 months if you do it right. Set proper expectations with a client and put those into the agreement. Get referrals by giving your customers something to talk about. To differentiate yourself, tell a different story than anyone else, especially if you have a lot of competitors. There is so much more to this episode with Joe so don’t miss it! Be sure to tune in to hear all the incredible insights and wisdom Joe shares.
